We arrived to find rows and rows of trees to choose from. We enjoyed just walking through them and looking. After we found our perfect tree, we sawed it down and then hopped on the trailer that came by to pick us up. The family that operates the Christmas tree farm then shook out all the old needles, wrapped it up, and sent us on our way. Below are some pictures from our outing.
....I want to touch it!
" I'm not going to look at the camera, I'm going to grab the tree!"
"Maybe if I get close enough I can put it in my mouth."
Riding on the trailer.

Wow, it's odd to me to hear about christmas tree farms in Texas!! They look so different too....all in rows like that, with dry ground. Out here, you can drive up the street to get a "pre-cut" tree, but what fun is that when you can drive 10 more minutes and find 25 different farms with 100's of trees to choose from and cut your own. I must say though....we don't have trailers to pick us up, and we have to tie the tree up ourselves and haul it off....but some, if you go to the nicer farms have petting zoos and hot cocoa and other festivities. If you don't mind me asking, about how much does a fresh tree cost in your area? And, did you get to pick between firs, nobles or grands? Sorry for the long comment....we just got our tree two weekends ago and picked out a fresh grand for $10. It's about 6 or so feet tall. Have fun decorating!! I'm thankful Kairis can't crawl yet, or we'd have loads of fun! ;)
